Excerpt

My most cordial thanks are due to Dr. Cunningham for his kindness in reading the manuscript of the Introduction; to Mr. Hubert Hall, Professor Skeat, Mr. Oppenheim, and Miss Jorgensen of Copenhagen University, for help and suggestions.

I am also much indebted to the Governor of the Gild of Merchant Adventurers of York for placing the manuscripts of the Society at my disposal, and especially to Mr. Alfred Procter, the Secretary, for his unwearied courtesy in facilitating my access to all the Records in his care.
